The town of Miserable was just like any other small town. Cabin like houses, every 15th day it rained strawberry milk or blood, fields, forests, a holiday for town hero Herbert Tenley (who died during a political protest he executed by trying to eat 15 pumpkins in a row, but died before the sixth), nice little parks...

Edith liked many things: those curious straycats, cheap tea and the ghost of her dog - Victor Barksbowow. She understood Swedish and animals. That is why she knew that Henry Samuel Morley's cat didn't like having nine lives and actually was alarmingly alcoholic and suicidal. Henry Samuel Morley wished he could too speak with his cats, but he didn't have any special talents. He could only name 35 different butterflies, see ghosts, remember 268 decimals of Pi and turn partially invisible. 

Even though hating to go outside and talking with people, Henry Samuel Morley did end up going on an adventure with Edith to save Miserable and stop Sinclair Fox and a satanic student from destroying the town with red wine, killing boogeymans and leaving tiger lilies everywhere.All Rights Reserved

Unleash by wweasley_hp

"I see Mr O'Cain has tried to help you, I guess that's how you've conquered your paranoia." Everyone worries about Audrey Williams. She wishes that this wasn't the case. Six months ago, her brother drowned. She tries to get back to normal, she wants to go back to normal, well as normal as it can get. But when her and her friends go on a museum trip and a somewhat familiar statue is seen from a childhood book, Peter decides it would be funny if he "unleashed" the curse. What happens? Let's say that someone turns into a statue, chaos unleashes and Audrey and her friends need to get Peter back (with a little help of course).

Monster Beneath The Surface (Solangelo AU) by Doctor_Orders1932

Everyone in town knows about the sea monster. Every night, he goes into town to find his prey. He lures them in with his voice, only to bring them back to the ocean, to eat them. Few survive this, and the people who do, they lose their mind, like they were cursed. You can only gather from them that he was beautiful, his voice was like an angel's, and that when he took you into the ocean, he became a monster. He only hunted young men, women, teens, and the occasional twelve-year old. It was terrifying, because the people had no way to stop him. Every night, someone would go missing, or come back insane. They knew he lived in the ocean, and when people tried to bomb the area where they thought the monster lived, they would either be cursed, or just eaten by the sea monster himself. And the people who came back insane, they would always wander over the fact that the monster had not even a scratch on him. Teens, young men and women would fear for their lives, and lock themselves in their houses at night. But only one person refused to hide, either in bravery or utter stupidity. That person was Will Solace. So basically, this story is based on the cover art of the book. I just thought it was such a great idea and wanted to put it to story. I saw another person do this and they used the same cover art, and I hope you guys like my version! I, personally very much like it and hope you guys do to! (I don't own any of the characters or art work that appears in this fanfic. All of the characters belong to Rick Riordan.)

Hell Hall by kamerykae

High School. A virtual hell to every pimple covered, greasy haired, knowledge loving kid who walks the halls of the institution. Only a very proud few manage to rise among the ranks to become "the cool kids," snagging the lucky fate of living the best years of their lives up through the twelfth grade. We'll just not tell them what happens after they graduate. In ten years, when the kid the football team swirlied is their boss, they'll realize that it probably would have been better to not be cool when they were teens. But that doesn't matter now. Why you ask? I'll tell you. My name is Bridge, which isn't short for Bridgette, if you were wondering. My parents were assholes when they were younger, I guess. It could have been worse; at least I'm not a piece of fruit or an airline. Unique names can kiss my little undead butt. Oh yeah, that. I'm also dead. No need to apologize—it's not your fault, unless you're the pile of crap who murdered me. If so, could you fill me in on what happened? I'd really like to know how my life ended. The last thing I remember is going out for a milkshake and then, poof! I was here. Where is here, you ask? If you ask any of the adults, it's Harrison's Preparatory Institution for the Gifted and Unknown. If you ask any of the students, it's Hell Hall. That's right, bitches; high school is now back in session.

Wild Witches by Killer_Mermaid

The year is 1914, the border between magical creatures and the humans is clearly defined. But unknown to many minds, the ministry of magic has another thorn in their flesh, the so-called wild witches. Descendants of old blood lines, believers in ancient rituals, never frightened in the dark woods, because deep within the forest the most terrifying thing was a wild witch with a wicked filled mind. Many wizards believed that they were part of cults, giving the devils their souls and slaughtering animals and muggles for sacrifices. Lucky for them, those transferences weren't all too real. Wild witches weren't burned anymore in Salem, they didn't sacrifice a life just to satisfy the needs of ambiguous gods and devils, they weren't evil. Not unless you awakened their rage... However, when influential men started growing their fear of peaceful witches, the burden of certain consequences would follow. 1914 the Ministry of Magic decided to enforce the rule that all witches and wizards must go to schools and can no longer be taught at home, like wild witches were. The young witch Y/n needs now to face the first school she's ever seen, not knowing that by the end of the school year her life would be changed forever... ~Be the witch you were born to be, wild and free.~ I actually post this rather short story on my tumblr, but decided then to post it here as well.

Good Grief ✧ Stiles Stilinski by sweetenerss

The last thing James "Jay" Hale ever imagined was to begrudgingly return to Beacon Hills, find out his older sister was murdered, and then be forced to go on a wild goose chase after some fuck ass Alpha that seemed to have a particular interest in ruining his life, all while fostering a very unfortunate and terrible alliance with Scott McCall and Stiles Stilinski to take said Alpha down, but here he was. ~ In which Derek's younger brother, the Hale baby, comes back to Beacon Hills six years later and suddenly has to fight not just for his own life, but also for the lives of his old friends and classmates. Through the journey of avenging his older sister and killing the Alpha responsible for her death, he also ends up uncovering family secrets and making more enemies along the way. On the brink of shattering from the weight of new responsibility and unending secrets, Jay has a choice: to retreat back into the solitude he'd created to protect himself from more pain OR rise from the ashes and shatter his defences to allow his wounded heart to finally mend. What will he decide? TEEN WOLF: **Book 1 of the Good Grief series** [Season 1&2] Love Interest: Stiles x Male OC Minor Isaac x Male OC Male Hale OC

Vulpecula ✔️ by Fireproof_0901

*Vulpecula - is a faint constellation in the northern sky. It's name is Latin for "little fox", although it is simply known as the fox.* The evil is rising. The saviour is born. The army has been preparing. And the war is inevitable. But amongst all the things, she also has to deal with her personal life. Her love life. And he is another story. He is rude, cold, arrogant and he knows that he does not deserve her. He is not a bad boy, but not a good boy either. He has tattoos, he has a massive ego and he also has very less words to say. She finds herself in a constant dilemma when it comes to him. And he knows what he does to her. He knows how infuriating he is. But he still wants her, craves her. She fights the attraction but for how long will she do that? How long can she hold her emotions in check before it all suffocates her? How long will she suffer? And when will the war end? How will she kill the greater evil? Or will she even reach close enough? Will she perish and give up on her journey to freedom? This is the story of a battle between the creatures that were long dead and the supernatural. This is the story of a twisted romance. This is the story of accepting oneself. This is her story.

The Things You Will Never Know by httpthatrandomgirl

If you go down to the woods today... Well, in this town, you probably won't come back. Unexplained deaths and disappearances are normal around here. In Haltonshaw Grove, we tell these real life horror stories to our kids like bedtime tales. They help us learn from a young age to stay out of the forest after dark. But one halloween, we didn't listen- Me and four boys. We broke the rules and we paid the price. We barely made it out alive and now we live with the trauma, the nightmares, the memories. Seven years later, the events of that night, like most things tend to do around here, have come back to haunt us. We never talked about the night we ran in the forest, never spoke afterwards at all really, but now we're going to need each other if we're going to survive what's coming. Me and those boys I've loved all along. - - ‐ - - - - - - - - - - - - - Our town is haunted. The five of us are cursed. And Halloween is just around the corner... Let's see who makes it to November 1st.

Lost Hunters by James_Wake

A series of short horror stories about hunters of the paranormal. Part 1 - The Gardener Two men arrive at a small town in rural Oregon. Children are going missing. The forests are burning down. Panic is setting in, and time is running out. M and J might not be the brightest of hunters, but they'll do what they can. Part 2 - The Unheard A solo hunter named Lilith leads a trio of teenagers to confront a ghost in their high school. She never used to believe in ghosts. Never used to believe in any of this. But the facts were the facts, and she'd been fired for trying to tell the truth. She isn't about to stop trying to protect people, though. Part 3 - The Library Card Crosby is an old hunter. This isn't his first time seeing a situation like this. People disappearing into a building for days. None of them coming back. No way to know what's waiting for him inside. No way to find out but to go into the old library himself. Part 4 - The Waiting Demons There are demons waiting everywhere, ready to pounce on the smallest sign of weakness. Mrs. Patience has always known this, even before she became a hunter. Now it is her and her husband's job to bring light to dark places. Part 5 - The Slouching Beast Diana isn't a hunter. She watches. And she guides. But something is hunting her.
